A multitude of acrylic monomers is used in dentistry, and when dental personnel, patients or students of dental medicine become sensitized, it is of great importance to identify the dental acrylic preparations to which the sensitized individual can be exposed. Numerous studies confirm high incidence of sensitization to (meth) acrylates in dentatal professionals, as well as in patients undergoin...

An experimental luting resin became available for evaluation o f its pulpal irritation potential. The ma­ terial is a high molecular weight urethane-di-methacrylate which does not require a thinning mo­ nomer such as tri-ethylene-glycol-di-methacrylate (TEGMA). In each o f 24 anaesthetized adult vervet monkeys labial cavities were cut in each o f the 8 inci­ sor teeth. In each monkey 2 randomly...

(7-Hydroxy-2-oxo-2H-chromen-4-yl)-acetic acid hydrazide (2) was prepared from (7-hydroxy-2-oxo-2H-chromen-4-yl)-acetic acid ethyl ester (1) and 100% hydrazine hydrate. Compound 2, is the key intermediate for the synthesis of several series of new compounds such as Schiff's bases 3a-l, formic acid N'-[2-(7-hydroxy-2-oxo-2H- chromen-4-yl)acetyl] hydrazide (4), acetic acid N'-[2-(7-hydroxy-2-oxo-2...

Eleven new bisresorcinols including four mixtures each of two isomers and one resorcinol/phloroglucinol derivative, together with five known resorcinols have been isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of stems of Grevillea whiteana. The new compounds were identified as 4-(3-hydroxy-3-methylbutyl)grebustol-B (10a), 4'-(3-hydroxy-3-methylbutyl)grebustol-B (10b), 4-(4-hydroxy-3-methylbutyl)grebu...

The reaction of the flavonol 3,7,3', 4'-tetra-O-methylquercetin (1) and of the isoflavone 7,4'-di-O-methylgenistein (2) with alkaline iodine in methanol afforded four new iodine derivatives: 8-iodo-5-hydroxy-3,7,3', 4'-tetramethoxy- flavone (1a) and 6-iodo-5-hydroxy-3,7,3', 4'-tetramethoxyflavone (1b) from 1; 2 afforded a mixture of two compounds, identified as a racemic mixture of (+/-)-trans-...

considering multiple reports on cytotoxic activity of the artemisia genus and its phytochemicals, in the current study a. armeniaca lam. and the three components isolated from the plant were subjected to cytotoxic studies. analytical fractionation of a. armeniaca aerial parts for the first time was directed to the isolation of 7-hydroxy-8-(4-hydroxy-3-methylbutoxy) comarin (armenin), 8-hydroxy-...
